摘要
Nano-structured (La,Sr)MnO3 infiltrated Y2O3-ZrO2 (LSM-YSZ) oxygen electrodes show excellent activity and performance stability under solid oxide electrolysis cells (SOECs) operation conditions. LSM-YSZ composite electrodes are prepared by infiltrating pre-sintered YSZ scaffold with LSM nitrate solution, followed by heat-treatment at 900 or 1100 degrees C. The electrodes heat-treated at 900 degrees C exhibit an electrode polarization resistance as low as 0.21 Omega cm(2) at 800 degrees C and are relatively stable under electrolysis operation at 500 mA cm(-2) for 100 h, while the electrodes heat-treated at 1100 degrees C show the increased stability with the electrolysis polarization. The results clearly indicate that LSM lattice shrinkage under anodic electrolysis conditions inhibits the agglomeration and grain growth of infiltrated LSM nanoparticles, leading to the highly stable nano-structured LSM-YSZ electrode structure.
